Description
The Opportunity
Galaxy Real Estate are instructed to offer for sale the freehold interest in Unit 1, Caxton Estate — a substantial detached warehouse and office building occupying a prominent position on Printing House Lane, in the heart of one of West Londons most established industrial and distribution locations, moments from Heathrow.
Offered with the benefit of full vacant possession, the property provides a versatile, selfcontained industrial facility that will appeal to owner-occupiers, investors and developers alike. It is available as a whole or in part, with accommodation from 3,150 sq ft, giving occupiers real flexibility.
Description
The property comprises a self-contained warehouse with two-storey offices positioned along the front elevation, constructed with brick-built walls beneath a pitched sheet roof. It includes a trade counter to the side elevation, adjacent to designated parking. The warehouse is accessed via a roller-shutter door leading to a secure, self-contained yard, and benefits from an eaves height of approximately 5.8 metres. Internally, there is a substantial mezzanine, while the two-storey office accommodation has most recently been used as an administrative and regional training centre.
In total the property extends to approximately 17,803 sq ft (1,653.9 sq m) on a Gross External Area basis, increasing to 23,222 sq ft when including the warehouse mezzanine.
Expansion Potential
A key attraction is the significant scope to grow the asset. A planning application has been submitted to the London Borough of Hillingdon to extend and enhance the property, including the addition of a storey to the existing warehouse and the erection of a new warehouse building of circa 7,000 sq ft within the service yard, together with extensions to the existing buildings and a comprehensive refurbishment — delivering a meaningful uplift in floorspace and value. Further details of the scheme are available to interested parties on request. Planning is submitted and pending determination; parties should make their own enquiries of the local planning authority.
Location
The property is situated on Printing House Lane within an established West London industrial area, well placed for the A312 (The Parkway) and the M4 (Junctions 3 & 4), providing fast access to Heathrow Airport, the wider motorway network and central London. Hayes & Harlington station (Elizabeth line) is close by, offering direct connectivity across London.
